Focus Areas

Positive Team Environment

Through engaging in team play, your child will advance their social and emotional competencies.

Tactical skills

During this phase, we focus on refining tactical skills, enhancing individual football abilities, and preparing players for structured game environments. This boosts their confidence and game-day performance.

Ball Mastery

Our primary emphasis is on skill development and ball mastery. This includes integrating more advanced techniques and fostering individual creativity both with and without the ball.

Game intelligence

Incorporating more tactics in to the game, I.e positioning on the field, formations, structure, and knowing when, where and why we perform an action.

Emotional Awareness

Emotional awareness in soccer teaches players to interact positively with teammates, fostering compassion and mutual respect. It equips them to handle both wins and losses gracefully, building resilience. This skill enhances team communication and decision-making, contributing to both on-field performance and personal growth.

Cognitive skills

Cognitive skills in soccer, like understanding body orientation relative to the ball and opponents, are key for player development. They improve decision-making, positioning, and spatial awareness, enabling players to anticipate moves, maintain control, and strategize effectively. This not only enhances on-field performance but also deepens their overall game understanding.

What your children will learn

In these sessions, we focus on maximum ball rolling time for each child ensuring the player can gain as many touches and have as much fun as they possibly can have with the ball in the allotted timeframe. We give each individual their own ball for as much of the session as possible , we want the players to learn their ball mastery skills as quickly as they can and by having their own ball for much of the session enhances the outcomes and speeds up the process.

Quite simply when a child can execute the fundamentals of the game along with exciting skills they have more fun and enjoyment when it comes to game time.

Spark Young Minds

We incorporate as much fun as possible into these sessions using themes inside of the games to spark imagination and creativity

Vital skills

We believe that ball mastery and 1-v-1s are the most important skills to be learning at this age
"It goes without saying that to be a great football player you have to be a master of the football, which is our main focus when it comes to football skill development."

What are our sessions like?

Each child gets lots of time with the ball during each session to maximise learning and to build gross and fine motor skills.

In our sessions it is estimated that each individual will get anywhere between
500 – 1000 touches on the ball which elevates the opportunity to develop quicker.

Fun is central to everything we do at pro soccer school. We create a fun environment for children to explore a range of new skills through movement and activity
